Toddler Recipe Of The Month: Sweet Potato Gnocchi

July 03, 2018

This weeks weather forecast calls for comfort food so we gave sweet potato gnocchi a mash.. I mean bash. This easy & delicious toddler food recipe is from one of our favourite food blogging, dietician moms @natashacorrett. At first we said "Sweet Potato Gnocchi... say what??!! That's way too hard to get right" but luckily we were wrong!

Gnocchi Ingredients:

1 x Medium sweet potato

2 tbsp Gluten free flour plus more for dusting the board & dough

1/2 t Nutmeg

1 x Egg

Method:

Mash up a medium roasted sweet potato with 1/2 tbsp nutmeg, an egg & add 2 heaped tbsp flour. It’s a wet mixture so use a spoon to make the gnocchi shapes and gently roll in flour (they are wet so don’t expect it to be like normal potato gnocchi) then boil for 3 minutes!

Serve with: Oven Roasted Veggie Sauce

We served it up with a quick & nutritious roasted veggie sauce & found it was delicious for the whole family!

Ingredients:

1 x Packet of roughly chopped vine tomatoes

1/2 x Packet, pre-cut butternut

1/2 Onion, roughly chopped

4 x Cloves garlic, peeled

2 tbsp Olive oil

1 t Dried oregano

4 x Basil leaves

Method:

Oven roast the tomatoes, butternut, onions & garlic with a drizzle of olive oil & a sprinkle of oregano. When cooled, add the basil & blend in the Nutribullet.

Voila!!!! Good for Toddler, good for Mom & Dad too.
